The New Face of Hate
Here I sit, pondering the words I just read
Another poor souls contempt
Over another man’s actions
All of it prompted by
Hate
What happened to the days of my youth
when you respected your elders
Or agreed to disagree, and yet still shake hands?
Guess, we had more common sense then
Now, there is only hate
And this hate
Is viciously cruel
It laughs in its mocking tone
No sin does it forget
No second chances allowed
Unless, it pertains to them
They claim to care about everything
Compassion overflowing
Goodness to the last drop
But speak the truth to them
And, you are their next target
How dare we stand up?
Or debate their reason?
Oh, we are just fools then.
Better to be dead and silent
Then alive and have a different perspective
How do you reach one of these?
When they don’t even see.
There is a difference between
Disagreeing and hate
Love (is the answer)
A word they state to know
Use it abundantly in their causes
Express it in their clothes
Their culture
But what about their hearts?
Has love become so degraded
That hate is preferred?
Or did some evil pervert it
And call it bad?
Good question.
I still believe
Kindness and respect
Are two wise companions
To have and give
Truth
I guess call me old fashioned
I prefer it way more better
Than your political correctness dictates
I will not be the harbinger of
Hate
But I will be a watcher
Over those who do
And steward the love I have
And help it grow.
For it is much needed.
